Luther Review

Luther is a riveting British crime drama centred on DCI John Luther, played by Idris Elba, a gifted investigator with a dark and turbulent history. The series is known for its dense and disturbing plots that keep fans on the edge of their seats. Elba gives an enthralling portrayal as a severely broken figure grappling with personal problems while confronting some of London's most dangerous gangsters. The drama is well-written, with fascinating characters and unexpected twists and turns, making it a must-see for crime enthusiasts. The supporting cast is extremely strong, especially Ruth Wilson as Alice Morgan, an attractive and intriguing serial murderer who becomes Luther's unusual friend. Luther is a gripping and compelling criminal thriller that tackles the evil side of humanity while highlighting its protagonist's clever and sophisticated mind. It's a must-see for genre enthusiasts as well as anyone searching for a well-crafted and compelling television series.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The first three series end with the same line of dialogue: "Now what?"

Writer Neil Cross said that DCI John Luther is actually a combination of Sherlock Holmes and Columbo (1971); he takes the intelligence and ability to solve crimes from Holmes and the introverted detective formula from Columbo.

Over the 5 seasons Luther drives 4 different Volvos although 2 have the same registration plate.

Massive Attack performs the theme songs for both Luther and House. Both lead characters are based, to a degree, on Sherlock Holmes.

At the beginning of episode 4: season 5, an advertisement for the film "Pacific Rim" can be seen on a double-decker bus. "Luther" star, Idris Elba, also appears in that film. It could therefore be argued, in fan theory, that (fictional) John Luther happens to be a coincidental look-a-like for Idris Elba, or within the story universe, the "Pacific Rim" casting was totally different.

Popular Dialogues

"Alice Morgan: Some little girls grow up wanting ponies. I always wanted to be a widow."

"Alice Morgan: So, I've got bullets but no gun. That's quite zen."
